Answer:

The acceleration of the system is 1.401 m/s² and

The tension in the cord is 100.902 N

Explanation:

Let the 9 kg mass be m

Let the 12 kg mass be M

By Newton's second law of motion we have

For the 9 kg mass, T - mg = ma and for the 12 kg mass we have T - Mg  = -Ma

Here we took the upward acceleration as positive a of the 9 kg mass and the downward acceleration of the 12 kg mass as -a

Solving for T for the 9 kg mass we have

T = mg + ma

Substituting  the value of T in to the 12 kg mass equation, we have

mg + ma - Mg = -Ma or  a = (\frac{M-m}{M+m} )g therefore the acceleration is

1.401 m/s²

and the tension is T = mg + ma = 9×(9.81+1.401) = 100.902 N

A truck initially traveling at a speed of 22 m/s increases at a constant rate of 2.4 m/s^2 for 3.2s. What is the total distance
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

82.7 m

Explanation:

u= 22m/s

a= 2.4 m/s^2.

t= 3.2 secs

Therefore the distance travelled can be calculated as follows

S= ut + 1/2at^2

= 22 × 3.2 + 1/2 × 2.4 × 3.2^2

= 70.4 + 1/2×24.58

= 70.4 + 12.29

= 82.7 m

Hence the distance travelled by the truck is 82.7 m

In making the determination that bullets, shells, or cartridge cases were fired from a specific weapon, the criminalist would us
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Comparison Microscope

Explanation:

The Comparison Microscope allows for comparison between two objects or samples by placing them side by side.

It is primarily used in criminology for ballistics which makes it ideal to find out if bullets, shells, or cartridge cases were fired from a specific weapon.

what is the dot product and cross product of of two vectors if the angle is between them is 90 degree?​
DaniilM [7]

\sf{\pink{\underline{\underline{\blue{GIVEN:-}}}}}

  • The angle between the two vectors is 90° .

\sf{\pink{\underline{\underline{\blue{TO\: FIND:-}}}}}

  1. The dot product of two vectors .
  2. The cross product of two vectors .

\sf{\pink{\underline{\underline{\blue{SOLUTION:-}}}}}

⚡ Let \rm{\vec{a}} and \rm{\vec{b}} are the two vectors .

✍️ We have know that,

\orange\bigstar\:\rm{\pink{\boxed{\green{\vec{a}\:.\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\cos{\theta}\:}}}}

Where,

  • θ = 90°

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:.\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\cos{90^{\degree}}\:}

  • cos 90° = <u>0</u>

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:.\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\times{0}\:}

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:.\:\vec{b}\:=\:0\:}

\rm{\red{\therefore}} [1] The dot product of two vectors is “ <u>0</u> ” .

✍️ We have know that,

\orange\bigstar\:\rm{\pink{\boxed{\green{\vec{a}\:\times\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\sin{\theta}\:}}}}

Where,

  • θ = 90°

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:\times\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\sin{90^{\degree}}\:}

  • sin 90° = <u>1</u>

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:\times\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\times{1}\:}

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:\times\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\:}

\rm{\red{\therefore}} [2] The cross product of two vectors is “ <u>ab</u> ” .
